Lyrics



Good Day

Dust my eyes off and wake from a dream
I hope that life's as real as it seems
Shake my head off, unloosed is a life
Of wanting you, and wasting no time

Break of daylight, my eyes are on you
Carefully counting the days from this view
Setting standards, already I'm bored
Just let it be, and I'll show what I have in store

I remember on that day (the water, sky, falling on you, just like me)
It all seemed so easy (you captured my loneliness and tucked it away)

Make no promise, just live here the day
Give me a moment of life that is free
Shaking copper stones into the hole, and
Seeing you, I wish for no more

I remember on that day (the water, sky, falling on you, just like me)
It all seemed so easy (you captured my loneliness and tucked it away)

Open my eyes to see
What you have done, and where you've taken me
Over and over again
Open my eyes to see

I remember on that day (the water, sky, falling on you, just like me)
It all seemed so easy (you captured my loneliness and tucked it away)

A good day I'll remember
A good day I'll remember, yeah
A good day I'll remember
You captured my loneliness and tucked it away


Quiet Conversation

You woke up time
And you said you'd get in line
But failed to read
Into what that really means
You say you're gone
And that I've been here too long
Exchange pleasantries
Hide me from reality

You came across
And act like there's nothing lost
Pulling my teeth
As you walk all over me
You played along
And act like there's nothing wrong
Exchange pleasant dreams
Tell me what you think they mean

Nobody knows these words in my head
I'll write aloud for you instead
I find myself clearest in bed
With my thoughts laid out for you

Call me a friend
Call me anything you feel
Now times have changed
Is there anything that's real
If I'm to lose
It would mean losing in your game
A constant peace
To always lean upon

Nobody knows these words in my head
I'll write aloud for you instead
I find myself clearest in bed
With my thoughts laid out for you

I have to hide to face the truth
All of my gain is loss to you, and patterns start again
These habits break and start again
But you were great until the end
For this I thank you


Head Above

This arrangement
Is more than I can take
Never changes, it's the same thing everyday
From the smallest things to the biggest mistake
It's the feeling I know I
It's the feeling I can't shake

And I can't decide what I want to find
When I get there

And what moves us
And what keeps us coming back
It's the same thing that I
It's the same thing that I lack

And I can't decide what I want to find
When I get there

So what is there to lose
When all you want to do
Is keep your head above
Keep you head above
Keep your head

Well what drives us
And what makes us want to start
And what keeps our feet in time
With the beating of our heart

And I can't decide what I want to find
When I get there

So what is there to lose
When all you want to do
Is keep your head above
Keep you head above
Keep your head


Do What You Do

You do what you do until they come for you
You do what you do until they come for you
I'll hide on a wire so high the air is new
You do what you do until they come for you

And you go where you go
And you do what you do
And in spite of it all
She loves you for you

You do what you do until they come for you
You do what you do until they come for you
I'll hide on a wire so high the air is new
You do what you do until they come for you

Then we'll go down, oh
We'll go down, oh no

And she loves you for you

You do what you do until they come for you
You do what you do until they come for you
I'll hide on a wire so high the air is new
You do what you do until they come for you

Then we'll go down, oh
We'll go down, oh no


The Road

It's the road back home
It's the road that knows
All the turns and loops
My life seems to throw

Sometimes drags me out
On the curb wait
For the driver to take me home
To that welcomed place

And everyone has a complaint with the ways of the world
But that doesn't mean that you can take lightly the ways of the world
Sometimes drags me out
On the curb I wait
For the driver to take me home
To that welcomed place

And everyone has a complaint with the ways of the world
But that doesn't mean that you can take lightly the ways of the world

I cannot see you
You cannot see me
The road is too far in between
You are not living up
To what you are
I am not living up
To what you wanted me to be

I cannot see you
You cannot see me
The road is too far in between
You are not living up
To what you are
I am not living up
To what you wanted me to be


Great Escape

You say you can't look back that way
But it's already too late, it's already too late
And I guess, I guess I'm down with that
But I would rather not, you're making a grave mistake

There, there, upon a rock somewhere
A great escape we shared, with me your thoughts you shared
As we ride, top down, and light the sky
All thoughts on you this night, carry my heart home if you like

And we're running
We're running
Just as fast as the world will allow us to run
Back into separate lives from where we have come

Sunrise, we watch it light the sky
All bets off, this feels right, carry my heart home if you like
And we hide, inside our minds we hide,
I tell myself to say, but it's already too late
And we're running
We're running
Just as fast as the world will allow us to run
Back into separate lives from where we have come


R Song

It's evening now and I'm alone
You're out with him careless with time
Are you even still considering me
Or have you made up your mind

I must say I am over you
It's just this crazy feeling I get
You have moved on to better things
I'd do it all again, I must admit

Wouldn't you
If we had the time
Wouldn't you
Loving you was my crime
Take me away
Since when is that a crime
Take me away

As I swim through the starry skies
I wonder if our eyes have met
There's someone who knows you more than I do
Not a moment do I regret

Do you
Or am I living in the past
For you
Forgetting is not as easy as you ask

Why do I always end up on the down end
Must be me to blame
And every time I get close to someone they run away

Every time I get close to someone they run away
And everything I poor myself into, bottom's broken

Every time I get close to someone they run away
And everything I poor myself into, bottom's broken


I Don't Want To Hear It

Make light of the situation
You need it but you don't
Believe it at all, at all

Stop shouting and just
Come out with it and
Speak to me softly, and I'll
Hear your story, but you don't
You don't want to hear it from me

Or anyone cause it seems that I'm
The only one who cares enough to talk about it
And hear you out but you don't
You don't want to hear it from me

I'm trying to save it but it's out of my hands
I'm trying to stop it
You're making it harder just to meet your demands
Do you even want it at all, at all

Stop shouting cause I'm
Not in the mood to hear
Your excuses every time
We go through this, now I don't
I don't want to hear it from you

I'm trying to save it but it's out of my hands
I'm trying to stop it
You're making it harder just to meet your demands
Do you even want it at all, at all


Stay Awake

On and off and on and off again
Stay up just a little more so I can see my friend
On and off and on and off again
Listen to me boys and girls about how it all began

As I lay inside my pillow you're gradually making your way
Unconsciousness, we'll fight, ‘til morning high
To see your honesty prevail

I want to stay awake
I want to stay awake
Dance in the eyes of a blooming beauty
Touch with golden gloves her skin's purity
I want to stay awake
I want to stay awake

Open, close, open, close
I must be stronger than to dose off into a different space and time
Now from these tired eyes I must arise
Inside my drape less mind I see you, barely there
I see you barely there

I want to stay awake
I want to stay awake
Dance in the eyes of a blooming beauty
Touch with golden gloves her skin's purity
I want to stay awake
I want to stay awake

All I want, all I want is to stay away
From the sleep that grips me so tightly
Oh, all I want, all I want is to stay away
From the sleep that grips me so tightly

I want to stay, I want to stay, awake
(repeat)


Sticks And Stones

I would, you should,
Listen to what they say
Earth, rock, silt, sand, stone and clay

And when time did start life did begin
I hope that one day we'll be lovers
But now the words that you spit from your mouth
Are tearing me down

In a way, it's not ok,
It's not ok to take what you say
And make it the only way
No, I'm not that way
I'll stay true to this game

You, me, different, see
Someday that may change
Blindly walking through this dark maze

And when time did start life did begin
I hope that one day we'll be lovers
But now the words that you spit from your mouth
Are tearing me down

In a way, it's not ok,
It's not ok to take what you say
And make it the only way
No, I'm not that way
I'll stay true to this game

These sticks and stones
Although they may break my bones
Your words have yet to pierce me
And never will

These sticks and stones
Although they may break my bones
Your words have yet to pierce me
And never will
(repeat)


Sweet Last Goodbye

I'm so tired of this
But it is this I will miss
It's been long, hasn't it
But now we move onto the next

As we follow in our predecessors footsteps
We come to realize
That all we wanted was to be free
And now I say this tonight

Save tonight, for tomorrow it will be gone
Hold on to it tightly
Look it in the eyes, and
Make it a sweet last goodbye

Now it's been long since you last asked me
Where do I want to go, what do I want to do, who do I want to be
Now first things first have come to pass
Tonight I see you for the last

Save tonight, for tomorrow it will be gone
Hold on to it tightly
Look it in the eyes, and
Make it a sweet last goodbye


Pass Me The Stone

Do you sleep at night
Like the rest of them do
Or is your head up,
Running through and through

Are you all tucked in
Like the rest of them are
Or are your eyes wide
To the world so far

Pass me the stone
Pass me the stone
I want to know what the future holds
Pass me the stone
Pass me the stone
I wanted to tell you you're not alone

Half naked and
Lying in bed
Sun-setting days
Are all I see ahead

Broke and down
Searching in the dark
For where my light is
Where to find a spark

Pass me the stone
Pass me the stone
I want to know what the future holds
Pass me the stone
Pass me the stone
I wanted to tell you you're not alone
And it's you
You're the one I need
And it's you
I can only see
When I shed these clothes and see past my novelties
You're the one that makes my body breathe
(repeat)


Little Things

Tell me what you see
In your short memory
Your life's a thousand pictures posted on the wall
For all to change, yeah, yeah,
Oh and rearrange
Out of things to see
Oh, and energy
The tell tale signs of quieter times
Oh, but I'm amazed, yeah, yeah

But when you lay it out
It's the little things that get to me
I want to scream and shout
At the bigger things and what they do to me

But when you lay it out
It's the little things that get to me
I want to scream and shout
At the bigger things and what they do to me


Back the the top...
